Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 shots Espresso
- 1 cup Milk
- 2 tablespoons Marzipan paste
- 1 teaspoon Orange zest
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Granulated sugar (optional, to taste)
- 2 tablespoons Whipped cream (optional, for topping)
- 1 strip Orange peel (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Brew 2 shots of espresso using your preferred method (espresso machine, Moka pot, etc.) and set aside.
In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the milk, marzipan paste, orange zest, and vanilla extract.
Stir constantly until the marzipan paste dissolves fully into the milk and the mixture begins to steam. Be careful not to let the milk boil.
Taste the mixture and add granulated sugar if desired for extra sweetness. Stir until dissolved.
Using a milk frother or handheld whisk, froth the milk mixture to create a light and velvety texture.
Pour the prepared espresso into a large coffee mug.
Slowly add the frothed marzipan-orange milk over the espresso, holding back the foam with a spoon and then spooning it on top.
Top with whipped cream if desired, and garnish with a strip of orange peel for an elegant touch.
Serve hot and enjoy your Marzipan Orange Latte!
